Saturday 13th March 2021

Listened to Poly Styrene's daughter Celeste on Saturday Live talking about the film she has made of her mother's artistic legacy...found I can download it from my local cinema for £10...a belated response to the pandemic enforced enclosures which means I can bypass Amazon Prime, though at a cost. FaceTimed mother to warn her that her Mother's Day chocolates were about to be delivered...the DPD man arrived as we were talking, and she unwrapped them live on screen! They then put some C&W on the CD player and danced about the dining room. Walked over to Finsbury Park, and ambled up the disused railway line toward Crouch End, and back to Stroud Green and the organic grocer. A lot of people out and about. Screened new film "Mouthpiece" after dinner...intriguing, artful low-budget Canadian film dissecting a daughter's grief for her mother, using two actresses to play the daughter...apparently started life as a theatre piece. Nicely done.
